Update – Display

What we said needed to happen in the third quarter:

• Normal end market seasonality

• Reduction in panel inventory levels

• Increase in panel maker utilization rates

If these occurred, we expected to see an improvement in the supply chain and sequential LCD glass volume growth

Page 9: 2006-09-20_BofA

Update – DisplayWhat has occurred to date:

• Normal end market seasonality– End market trends remain on track

As a result, our glass demand has increased sequentially in July and August and is forecasted to increase in September

• Reduction in panel inventory levels– Panel inventory has fallen, but some excess remains– Sequential panel shipments increased in July and August– Slight increase in monitor panel pricing

• Increase in panel maker utilization rates– Taiwanese panel maker utilization rates increased on average from

70% in July to an estimated 80% in August

Page 10: 2006-09-20_BofA

Update – Display

Looking forward:

• Continued reduction in panel inventory levels and improvement in panel maker utilization rates

• Seasonal demand and supply chain replenishment will influence second half glass demand

Forward Looking and Cautionary

This presentation contains forward looking statements that involve a variety of business risks and other uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. These risks and uncertainties include the possibility of changes or fluctuations in global economic conditions; currency exchange rates; product demand and industry capacity; competitive products and pricing; availability and costs of critical components and materials; new product development and commercialization; order activity and demand from major customers; capital spending by larger customers in the telecommunications industry and other business segments; the mix of sales between premium and non-premium products; possible disruption in commercial activities due to terrorist activity and armed conflict; ability to obtain financing and capital on commercially reasonable terms; acquisition and divestiture activities; the level of excess or obsolete inventory; the ability to enforce patents; product and components performance issues; and litigation. These and other risk factors are identified in Corning’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward looking statements speak only as of the day that they are made, and Corning undertakes no obligation to update them in light of new information or future events.
